s immigration policy today, president biden unveiled his bill designed to cement sweeping immigration reform, ktvu south bay reporter jesse garyails. this about how america is safer, stronger, just shy of one month in the oval office, and president joe biden is setting a path forward for sweeping immigration reform. president biden, you know, a big part of his coalition was to get latino votes was to get immigrant votes is abroad kind of multiracial coalition, so it really doesn't surprise me that he really has put a lot of emphasis. rolling out his immigration package. the u. s citizenship act of 2021 would create an eight year path to citizenship for roughly 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country before january. 1st. farm workers and dr recipients immediately would get green cards there would be increased funding for immigration judges in staff to help alleviate case backlogs and higher per country visa caps for family members. term alien will be replaced with non citizen one might see this knot is the final bill that needs to be voted on, but rather the first part of ah, non going negotiation that will lead to th

precursor on what could come do you expect a more tough regulatory regime from the biden administration on bitcoin? >> i don't garyr is the new head of the sec. he taught a glass on block chain on mit gary is very fair and progressive. i think if anything he'll look at the banks as these big rent takers and say why are we charging so much on atm fees you know, he understands crypto. i think he'll regulate crypto in a fair way i think there will be a good set of rules and all systems need a set of rules the more clarity we get, what was frustrating with jay clayton is he never said anything so the crypto group was trying to figure out what was okay and what wasn't. the moment there's a clear set of rules, you're going to see a ton more acceleration. >> going back sort of similar to my last question but not quite the same, do you fear the sentiment might shift even though people might have bought the two assets for completely different reasons, long term versus short term, etcetera, do you fear a shift in the retail investor's mindset if they've experienced losses for the first time in a big way over the last month

biden except that timeline? >> i don't have a new timeline to get you from your. the president agrees with forme secretary gary that it's a crisis that time is of the essence and we need to act quickly. >> it's not clear how quickly these can be replaced with the administration sits, fossil fue workers can learn to do something else. >> what biden wants to do is make sure that those folks have better choices, that they have alternatives, they could be the people to go to work and make the solar panels. can get many of the things that he is trying to do differently are because of the environment and justin trudeau said this afternoon as the u.s. and canad were putting together a joint communiquÉ about their bilatera meetings he thought it was nice the u.s. was now taking out references to climate change as had happened in the past eight instead we're putting them in. >> thank you, peter. president biden and canadian prime minister didn't publicly discuss a vote by canadian lawmakers to call china's treatment genocide. we looked into it. >> there is a genocide going on so let's take action part. >> president bid

. $232,000 to biden's 50,000. 51,000 just about to bernie sanders. gary peters 37,000.ecially in a presidential election. when you see hundreds of millions of dollars spent, you start to wonder how much does $200,000 impact an election? let me show you something that does impact an election. union membership from teacher's unions national education association over 3 million members. the american federation of teachers 1.7 million members. and local, new york state united teachers 600,000 members. tell me those numbers don't swing an election and have a price to pay on the back end. pete: of course they do. and teachers unions are the foundation stone of the democrat party base. go to any state and the state teachers union is probably the most powerful lobby in that state. they give exclusively to democrats and expect a pay back in return. in the case of joe biden, as you pointed out, will, he gets 4 to 5 times more donations from national teachers unions than anyone else. you might say he is in bed with the teacher's unions except he actually is in bed in the teacher's

biden realizes that was a mistake, that announcement? >> i, i think so, yes. gerry: let's talk about this with lee carter and gary smith. e. >> nice to be here. gerry: lee, let's talk about these tensions here within the progressive democratic coalition. president biden, you know, said he wants to be a uniter, as we have said, but the decision 20 cancel the keystone pipeline, you know, is costing jobs. his broader energy plan is almost certain to cost many, many, many good paying, many of them union jobs. i wonder where this is going to -- i wonder how this is going to unfold. >> you know, it's really, really fascinating because he did, he promised to be a moderate, he promised to run as a uniter, and here he is in day, you know, in his first hundred days he's done several things that i think are indicating he's not necessarily that and that he's not necessarily moderate. i think union workers have a reason to be concerned. he's always had the image of being union-friendly, and yet there's very little evidence to support that he is, in fact, union-friendly. in fact, the only time he joined a picket line was in 1987, and

gary:. >> the task of battling the ongoing threat falls to the biden administration now in office for justrmer congressman cedric richmond, the director of the white house office of public engagement. thank you so much for spending time with us today. first, your thoughts on what i see as the connective tissue between some of the reporting about merrick garland's experience in prosecuting oklahoma city bomber timothy mcveigh and some of the things that your new defense secretary has combatted is that everyone is in a posture to fight domestic extremism. >> well, domestic violent extremism has been ranked by the fbi and intelligence agencies as one of the number one threats to this country. for the last couple of years, maybe even three or four years, just the truth is the last administration decided to ignore it, and when i was on homeland security committee, our chairman, bennie thompson, tried to bring it up over and over again just to be stalled or fought by the administration and so this administration, we're not going to do that. we've always said that we will let facts, science, and

be getting a shot in the arm this as the biden administration reaches out to the best and brightest in the bay area for help. ktvu south bay reporter jesse gary explains. problems getting a covid-19 vaccination shot continue plaguing people eager to put the virus behind them. i spent about 15 minutes filling out the form. we need to find out they weren't available. the frustration felt by tech expert larry maggot and others has reached washington, dc federal health officials are trying to vaccinate over 300 million americans by the end of july. the last time we tried to do something, anything like this in the united states was when we vaccinated people for polio on that's a long time ago, protect american youngster. the polio vaccine became widely available in 1955 when the u. s population was 100 ft. 89 million people less than it is now, the biden administration announcing it'll leverage the expertise of the tech industry to smooth out rough spots and speed covid-19 vaccinations. we're consulting with many companies, including amazon about specific ways they could help execute the president's national strategy against covid, says white hous
